28:53.779 [SPEAKER_03]: And I thought it was a really interesting sad place that it ends up with with Lois and Jimmy because at least I was talking about how Jason Aaron has been slowly walking us towards their destinies. 28:54.580 --> 28:55.882 [SPEAKER_03]: and they back away from that here. 28:55.922 --> 29:01.108 [SPEAKER_03]: They go in a different direction, which I thought was kind of fascinating, so very curious to see where he goes next. 29:02.049 --> 29:02.610 [SPEAKER_02]: It's cool though. 29:02.670 --> 29:04.392 [SPEAKER_02]: I like that it's everyone's put up. 29:04.412 --> 29:09.438 [SPEAKER_02]: This felt like a very much a last issue of a series almost the way everyone goes. 29:10.495 --> 29:16.737 [SPEAKER_03]: They mean his expider man number 33 from Marvel went by Joe Kelly art by Ed McGinnis last two issues. 29:16.857 --> 29:39.903 [SPEAKER_03]: We found out that at May has a older son who knows that Peter Parker spiderman and that's something he's continuing to deal with in this issue while also wrestling with a new damage control that has a new mission to take down supervillains in a proactive way before they can cause the damage while trying not to interrupt spiderman too much and be very friendly 29:40.987 --> 29:43.110 [SPEAKER_02]: So we're trying to control the damage. 29:43.330 --> 29:43.951 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 29:44.491 --> 29:49.357 [SPEAKER_03]: And so there's a bunch of different things that are going on there that he's juggling as usual. 29:49.518 --> 29:54.043 [SPEAKER_03]: Also, Joe Kelly tries to do narration technique in this issue that I thought was very interesting. 29:54.604 --> 29:58.649 [SPEAKER_03]: Generally, I think we're really liking Spider-Man and does that continue with this issue. 29:59.537 --> 30:01.619 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I thought the cover was very cool. 30:02.459 --> 30:05.702 [SPEAKER_01]: The damage control guy just trying to enjoy a hot dog was fun. 30:06.883 --> 30:10.887 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, we're not getting any kind of peed dating stuff which gives me help. 30:11.187 --> 30:13.989 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, then you're kind of plastic past the hot dogs for a second. 30:14.169 --> 30:19.994 [SPEAKER_03]: What did you think of that hot dog carrier case that had four hot dogs vertically in it?

Wilson III, Marietta Ignasi, and Tom Williams. 38:25.030 --> 38:31.777 [SPEAKER_03]: This is an anthology about San Diego Comic Con, they released one last year that was a ton of fun. 38:32.477 --> 38:44.455 [SPEAKER_03]: This one is a little more a razor-focused on exclusives and exclusive culture and also goes into other directions, but it has several links stories that sort of overlap each other. 38:44.475 --> 38:46.057 [SPEAKER_03]: But do you guys

think about this collection? 38:46.948 --> 38:47.408 [SPEAKER_01]: It's great. 38:47.508 --> 38:48.529 [SPEAKER_01]: This is really fun. 38:49.029 --> 38:51.831 [SPEAKER_01]: The art is just wild in all the right ways. 38:52.391 --> 38:56.173 [SPEAKER_01]: Just really impressive swings that they're taking fun inside jokes. 38:57.253 --> 38:59.975 [SPEAKER_01]: The feel and tone of this is just really great. 39:00.255 --> 39:12.121 [SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, I really felt like my younger self, you know, saw a lot of great kind of art that felt like art from the 90s and 80s in all the right ways. 39:12.201 --> 39:13.502 [SPEAKER_01]: So really impressive collection. 39:14.837 --> 39:41.595 [SPEAKER_02]: uh... i really like the concluder uh... and and that was fun yeah and it's the first story and threaded through the um... fresh shredder runner throughout it is like the uh... the marvel pie uh... through pie and and the back of the day uh... and i was really uh... surprised and i thought they did a great job of linking the stories they felt very standalone and then linked together really cleanly 39:42.118 --> 39:54.369 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it was nice, it was subtly done through some of them, like there's one thing where this little exclusive is running around killing people on the con floor and passes by these two people, they show up at a later story. 39:54.849 --> 39:56.370 [SPEAKER_03]: And that was delightful. 39:56.651 --> 40:06.980 [SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, all in all, great art throughout this book, if you're looking for a fun thing to read while you're waiting online and it's exclusive to Pick The Bob at Saidio Comic-Con. 40:07.100 --> 40:08.381 [SPEAKER_03]: This is the perfect thing. 40:09.543 --> 40:21.734 [SPEAKER_03]: Swamp Thing, 1989, number four from DC Comics, written by Rick Vich, art by Tom Mandrake, after nearly 40 years, Rick Vich's run on Swamp Thing is finally done with this issue. 40:21.974 --> 40:28.040 [SPEAKER_03]: It all comes down to, of course, arcane versus Swamp Thing, but with a new riff here. 40:28.820 --> 40:32.644 [SPEAKER_03]: And a fun solution for figuring out how to get out of this run. 40:33.244 --> 40:41.488 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, setting up the next run of swap thing that has existed for many decades at this point, which I thought was really neat. 40:42.109 --> 40:49.533 [SPEAKER_03]: I am, I feel like I've said these exact words before, but I'm just so glad this exists and they got this out here. 40:49.753 --> 40:55.696 [SPEAKER_03]: It's a fantastic package full of old school ads and a femuroth route. 40:56.136 --> 41:01.479 [SPEAKER_03]: But overall, this was also just a really good story about Swamp Thing and Abigail Larkine. 41:01.919 --> 41:03.500 [SPEAKER_03]: I'd love to have a tie it up at the end. 41:03.740 --> 41:04.741 [SPEAKER_03]: I thought this was just great. 41:05.581 --> 41:06.302 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I agree. 41:06.342 --> 41:08.783 [SPEAKER_01]: This is cool cover, fun. 41:09.344 --> 41:17.088 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, we get like kind of letters page and back matter and everything you were just kind of talking about really good to add so I really, yeah. 41:17.429 --> 41:23.652 [SPEAKER_01]: And then the editor and brief was a fun bit too on the letters page. 41:23.692 --> 41:25.874 [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, this is just great ending. 41:26.634 --> 41:30.777 [SPEAKER_01]: The amazing kind of trip dot art that really does a great job of paying homage to. 41:31.197 --> 41:36.481 [SPEAKER_01]: kind of where it started, John Constantine saved the day, made me very happy, just amazing. 41:36.501 --> 41:39.302 [SPEAKER_01]: I also love the black and white swamping drawing at the end. 41:39.843 --> 41:45.146 [SPEAKER_01]: This was just a hell of a package and really well done in great hands. 41:45.506 --> 41:46.187 [SPEAKER_01]: Super impressive. 41:47.342 --> 41:56.129 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, I wish we could just continue from here now forward and do more stories like this because it's great. 41:56.389 --> 41:58.110 [SPEAKER_02]: We get some classic Fertigo stuff. 41:58.170 --> 42:05.216 [SPEAKER_02]: You've got a contenting, shoving hand into arcades, eyes with a middle finger, 42:05.869 --> 42:08.892 [SPEAKER_02]: sending it back to New York all the the big bad. 42:09.072 --> 42:10.053 [SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was really cool. 42:11.934 --> 42:18.920 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels like this type of storytelling we just don't have anymore of blending different parts of the DC universe but still under the vertigo tent. 42:19.680 --> 42:20.861 [SPEAKER_02]: And I really liked where it ended. 42:20.881 --> 42:21.642 [SPEAKER_02]: It was very sweet. 42:22.383 --> 42:24.244 [SPEAKER_02]: The last panel is very funny. 42:24.384 --> 42:30.289 [SPEAKER_02]: It's Abigail just like celebrating in the swamp while swamping has their son named 42:31.650 --> 42:32.331 [SPEAKER_02]: Jesus Christ. 42:32.431 --> 42:33.472 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, that was yes. 42:33.532 --> 42:35.575 [SPEAKER_03]: You said he was inspired by a guy. 42:35.595 --> 42:37.136 [SPEAKER_03]: He met in the past. 42:38.458 --> 42:39.058 [SPEAKER_02]: Really subtle. 42:39.459 --> 42:41.401 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's crazy to be like I was inspired. 42:41.541 --> 42:43.864 [SPEAKER_02]: Um, this is my son Jesus Christ. 42:45.154 --> 42:46.535 [SPEAKER_02]: I just Jesus Christ thing. 42:46.835 --> 42:53.840 [SPEAKER_03]: Do you think I'd be at least part of that because we talk to work by each other and he wrote this stuff after room? 42:54.180 --> 42:57.322 [SPEAKER_03]: The whole flap about him drawing something as a cross. 42:57.762 --> 43:00.024 [SPEAKER_03]: That has to be a little bit of him thumbing his nose. 43:00.524 --> 43:03.706 [SPEAKER_02]: I think definitely that just enough to say so. 43:04.067 --> 43:05.628 [SPEAKER_02]: But it is funny the last panel. 43:06.048 --> 43:09.190 [SPEAKER_02]: Abigail celebrating happy kid and swamp things look air like. 43:09.823 -->

43:13.148 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh my god, I got a parent this time. 43:13.309 --> 43:14.971 [SPEAKER_02]: He looks very unsettled. 43:15.272 --> 43:18.377 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, oh, you saw yourself in Swamp Thing as well. 43:18.597 --> 43:19.739 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I do all the time. 43:23.475 --> 43:25.057 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, that's a great place to wrap up. 43:25.117 --> 43:29.561 [SPEAKER_03]: Star Trek Red Shirts Ghost of the 21st century number one from I.D.W. 43:29.581 --> 43:33.164 [SPEAKER_03]: Written by Jerry Duggen, art by Scott Abwon, Chris Gianno. 43:33.904 --> 43:40.930 [SPEAKER_03]: This is a sequel series for the first Red Shirts series that focuses on the Dube to two die engines in the Star Trek universe. 43:40.950 --> 43:43.893 [SPEAKER_03]: There's a new story, though, with some new deaths at a new mystery. 43:44.593 --> 43:49.658 [SPEAKER_03]: We talked to Jerry about this when he was on the show a couple of months back, but what did you guys think about this one? 43:50.661 --> 44:08.037 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this is really fun, you know, love the tone of it, the art is kind of light and fun, a lot of cool colors, you know, strong start with the killing the Spocktop character, green blood everywhere, super gross. 44:08.757 --> 44:12.000 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, but I felt like the tone of this was fun. 44:12.881 --> 44:17.264 [SPEAKER_01]: I love the Mugatu, you know, kind of a fun shout out to the Zoonlander. 44:17.925 --> 44:21.688 [SPEAKER_01]: We'll feral character, Mugatu, so nope. 44:21.868 --> 44:23.910 [SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was a fun nod to that. 44:25.506 --> 44:26.287 [SPEAKER_02]: Definitely true. 44:26.307 --> 44:29.729 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean the question I thought this is great. 44:29.769 --> 44:38.775 [SPEAKER_02]: I love getting into the underbelly crimes that happen amongst the utopian ideas of most Star Trek shows. 44:39.015 --> 44:39.576 [SPEAKER_02]: That's cool 44:40.462 --> 44:55.539 [SPEAKER_02]: that there's also a great panel where a dude is like, oh, I shouldn't have hooked up and in the foreground, you see a three cup bra hanging from like the tree next to the funny, but the, the thing, the directions. 44:56.527 --> 45:00.070 [SPEAKER_02]: This book is a feathering the idea that Richards know they're going to die. 45:00.550 --> 45:03.753 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and I think that's not that's not what's supposed to be. 45:04.633 --> 45:08.557 [SPEAKER_02]: It's not like you're like, oh no, that's a pop culture thing. 45:08.597 --> 45:10.278 [SPEAKER_02]: Not a Star Trek culture thing. 45:10.538 --> 45:16.523 [SPEAKER_03]: Right, it's there are a lot of engines and all the engines should not be like, well, we are going to die. 45:16.663 --> 45:17.824 [SPEAKER_03]: That's not exactly it. 45:18.444 --> 45:18.925 [SPEAKER_03]: I think, 45:19.973 --> 45:34.027 [SPEAKER_03]: this one, at least in this first issue, finds a better way around it and a better reason for that than the first one did, which yeah, that was a little critical of because like it was very deathly serious about like, 45:35.008 --> 45:37.669 [SPEAKER_03]: They're all red shirts, and they're all gonna die, period. 45:37.729 --> 45:43.512 [SPEAKER_03]: This one at least finds some fun in the weirdest of that concept and explains why they're getting all those folks to do it. 45:43.752 --> 45:53.077 [SPEAKER_02]: So, yeah, there's related to the idea that it's like, well, if you're gonna do a mission that's a crime, you need the lowest level goons to do it. 45:53.197 --> 45:55.058 [SPEAKER_02]: So, there's not a lot of questions. 45:55.944 --> 45:58.285 [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but fun start next up. 45:58.525 --> 46:07.128 [SPEAKER_03]: This is one that I know everybody liked on Kenny X-Men number 32 Marvel Mike Alcimone art by Roja and Tonyo Jim Toe and Freda Reak of Manson. 46:07.608 --> 46:12.910 [SPEAKER_03]: There are two alien visions happening Louisiana at the same time with the X-Men caught in the 46:13.570 --> 46:14.931 [SPEAKER_03]: middle and this issue. 46:14.951 --> 46:18.252 [SPEAKER_03]: They fight back as well as one of them. 46:18.652 --> 46:22.413 [SPEAKER_03]: Two of them actually leave the team it is for right now by the end. 46:23.174 --> 46:25.835 [SPEAKER_03]: Since you guys definitely like this one, what did you like about it?

48:00.706 --> 48:02.066 [SPEAKER_03]: Who did they see this from? 48:02.086 --> 48:03.106 [SPEAKER_03]: At sea, yeah. 48:04.387 --> 48:11.109 [SPEAKER_03]: But still, yeah, I was hoping it was the debut in costumes and that they did it, and not only did they get the costumes, they get the name, very satisfying. 48:11.149 --> 48:12.889 [SPEAKER_02]: Then on the table for a while, happy to see it. 48:13.349 --> 48:17.411 [SPEAKER_02]: But I also want to say, if you're a fan of X-Men 97, 48:18.811 --> 48:20.774 [SPEAKER_02]: you need to be reading this comic book. 48:20.814 --> 48:25.420 [SPEAKER_02]: This comic book is the comic that is doing that currently now. 48:25.501 --> 48:28.224 [SPEAKER_02]: No other comic is even approaching that style of storytelling. 48:28.765 --> 48:29.867 [SPEAKER_02]: That series is awesome. 48:29.887 --> 48:31.209 [SPEAKER_02]: This comic is awesome. 48:31.549 --> 48:33.712 [SPEAKER_02]: Everyone should be consuming both of these things. 48:34.787 --> 48:45.854 [SPEAKER_03]: The last I agree with everything you guys said the last little note that I'll throw out there is I love romantic swash buckling night crawler and that's what we're getting here and it's just the best. 48:46.154 --> 48:55.079 [SPEAKER_03]: I feel like I said this with a previous issue there's a lot of folks that have been pairing this to Chris Kriermontz on Kenny Xman and keep shouting him out this episode. 48:55.539 --> 49:01.484 [SPEAKER_03]: But I think this is actually a lot closer to Excalibur in terms of it's kind of a weird team. 49:01.584 --> 49:10.031 [SPEAKER_03]: There's weird things going out all the time, but ultimately it's these people that are this de facto family that have joined together all living in the same place. 49:10.212 --> 49:10.532 [SPEAKER_03]: It's great. 49:10.968 --> 49:34.694 [SPEAKER_02]: And that's a great comfort you that lights you up, but for most people, that's no, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's zero, that's 49:35.035 --> 49:41.298 [SPEAKER_01]: You're like, I know a lot of people are complimenting it, but I wanna just take it down to that. 49:41.318 --> 49:42.779 [SPEAKER_03]: No, I love Excalibur. 49:42.799 --> 49:47.381 [SPEAKER_03]: You gotta go back and read those original issues of Excalibur. 49:47.421 --> 49:54.225 [SPEAKER_03]: It's definitely got a crazy wonky after a while, but the first like 12 issues or so are so good. 49:54.405 --> 49:54.765 [SPEAKER_03]: They're great. 49:55.345 --> 50:06.034 [SPEAKER_02]: The most Excalibur thing I think lately in X-Men continuity was the during Crocoa, the swords and those X-Men swords and all that. 50:06.494 --> 50:16.002 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, the thing that I'm thinking about though is like there's always stuff at Excalibur where like the warwolves would show up with through the shiny, weird, odd things. 50:16.562 --> 50:30.949 [SPEAKER_03]: And they come back with a lot of the other characters that I'll write and they just sort of like pop in and pop out for a while and then disappear And that's kind of what this title does is like oh, there's two alien invasions But the important thing here is they get new costumes period and it's great. 50:31.389 --> 50:32.270 [SPEAKER_03]: I just have it a blast 50:33.351 --> 50:49.101 [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway, void rivals number 32 from sky-bouted image comics written by Robert Kirkman art by Connor Hughes and this is she really dialing down on our void rivals hanging out with Pythana from guess, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 50:49.922 --> 51:02.355 [SPEAKER_03]: leading up to the introduction of Rom who was actually introduced in a surprise issue that was provided in blind bags of bass number one and will be generally available at the end of August. 51:03.556 --> 51:07.560 [SPEAKER_03]: But Pete, what do you think you're our energon correspondent?

59:00.868 --> 59:22.289 [SPEAKER_02]: same I like this to this felt like very 90s vertigo coming like and I like the idea very curious how to tell where we're going she's definitely a character that feels like has been crushed by the world and her place in it and now she's lashing out so it is it that like punk rock story or are we going in another direction here looking forward to finding out 59:22.923 --> 59:47.672 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, the idea of a killer immune system that will attack its host own immune system if it can't attack anybody else is kind of an interesting thing and the art is crazy, but yeah, I mean, the dark side to this like this person who's suffering is tough, but yeah, other than that, yeah, artistically it's pretty unique and interesting. 59:48.192 --> 59:57.719 [SPEAKER_03]: Well, I do think there is an element here that this is in just like cool power fantasy period that there are a lot of people out there with debilitating illnesses. 59:57.979 --> 01:00:09.768 [SPEAKER_03]: And I think this is trying to build off of that and figuring out how exactly how can you make the power fantasy of that sort of thing and flip it around a little bit because they're not just making. 01:00:16.853 --> 01:00:19.898 [SPEAKER_03]: textual layer that I assume they will play with going forward. 01:00:21.064 --> 01:00:26.308 [SPEAKER_03]: Next up, Spider-Man Longway home number two from Marvel Written by Jonathan Hikman, Art by Adam Cuber. 01:00:26.468 --> 01:00:38.516 [SPEAKER_03]: This is a out of continuity series that finds a

then you flip to the first page and it shows flash dodging to the other side of the heat wave, so it's the same frame, but he's moved fast through it, and that is so cool. 01:05:18.105 --> 01:05:20.986 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this book is just really operating. 01:05:21.026 --> 01:05:22.606 [SPEAKER_02]: I feel like I really like it. 01:05:23.006 --> 01:05:24.187 [SPEAKER_02]: I like these ideas. 01:05:24.327 --> 01:05:26.887 [SPEAKER_02]: I think the art is really fun and carefree. 01:05:26.967 --> 01:05:28.348 [SPEAKER_02]: It feels very loose. 01:05:28.368 --> 01:05:32.529 [SPEAKER_02]: It's capturing the tone of the character just to the art look alone. 01:05:33.349 --> 01:05:40.014 [SPEAKER_02]: And right north, still using all of his science, the flash is becoming a predictive algorithm in a way. 01:05:40.455 --> 01:05:44.418 [SPEAKER_02]: And I feel like that will become a problem soon. 01:05:44.458 --> 01:05:46.399 [SPEAKER_01]: Just so I don't want to give you kind of notes. 01:05:46.419 --> 01:05:48.341 [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder when you're talking well about a common. 01:05:48.421 --> 01:05:49.081 [SPEAKER_02]: I like him. 01:05:49.102 --> 01:05:51.623 [SPEAKER_02]: Been so happy in all these years to find out it's in them. 01:05:52.344 --> 01:05:57.128 [SPEAKER_01]: You say normally a person says this comic is operating on another level. 01:05:57.228 --> 01:05:58.028 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like insane. 01:05:58.048 --> 01:05:59.910 [SPEAKER_01]: But you just said this comic is operating. 01:06:00.450 --> 01:06:02.651 [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, well, is that good, I guess?
